2011 Honda Civic Airbags Problems

Your driver-side airbag and side curtain airbag deployed unexpectedly while your car was parked and turned off, with no impact or warning lights. Your passenger was injured slightly during the deployment, which happened while the front passenger window was being rolled up. The dealer was unable to diagnose or fix the problem. The issue may require airbag system diagnostics and replacement of the deployed airbag modules.

Your airbags failed to deploy during a collision with a concrete parking lot light pole. You sustained serious injuries including a cracked sternum, ribs, shoulder, and back, plus aggravation of a prior spine injury. The impact also caused significant engine and radiator damage that totaled the vehicle. Addressing this would require a full airbag system diagnostic and replacement of the airbag control module and sensors.

Your driver's side airbag suddenly deployed while your grandson was driving on the highway, filling the car with smoke and debris. He safely pulled over and drove home, but the airbag went off without any collision occurring. After insurance and dealership inspections found no obvious cause, your car has been at the dealership for over a month with little communication about when repairs will be completed. The airbag system will likely need to be diagnosed to determine why it deployed, and the airbag unit itself will need to be replaced.

While driving at 35 mph, your brakes failed to stop the vehicle when you pressed the brake pedal, resulting in a crash into multiple vehicles. The airbags did not deploy during the collision, and you sustained serious injuries including a fractured spine and chest. The vehicle was not repaired or diagnosed after the crash. A complete brake system inspection and airbag system diagnostic will be needed to determine why both safety systems failed.

You were a passenger in a side-impact crash on the driver's side in April 2020. Your passenger airbag deployed late, and the two passenger-side curtain airbags didn't deploy at all, even though the airbags had been replaced under recall about a year prior. You sustained serious injuries including a cracked windshield from head impact, broken sternum, and two displaced discs from chest impact with the dashboard. The issue appears to be a failure of the airbag system to deploy properly and on time during a crash event.

Your 2011 Honda Civic is part of a Takata airbag recall (NHTSA Campaign 18V661000), but the replacement parts haven't been available yet from Honda. You've been waiting longer than expected for the recall repair to be completed, and you've notified Honda about the delay. The fix will require Honda to supply and install replacement airbag components once they become available.

I AM STATIONED IN GERMANY. I HAVE EMAILED MY REQUEST TO A.ROOS@AUTO-STIERLE.DE TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIX MY RECALL. THEY SAID I AM NOT IN THE GERMAN SYSTEM, SO THEY CAN'T FIX IT. I NEED HELP ON WHOM TO BRING THIS TO IN THE STUTTGART, GERMANY AREA. THANK YOU.

CORRECTION ACTION REQUIRED ON AIRBAG STATUS. THE AIRBAGS WERE FIXED LAST YEAR NOVEMBER 2ND, 2019 AT HONDA ROUSH DEALERSHIP IN WESTERVILLE, OHIO PLEASE CONTACT HONDA ROUSH FOR DETAILS

AT APPROXIMATELY 35 TO 40 MPH WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES LATELY DUE TO TRAFFIC SLOWING DOWN IN FRONT I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO BRAKE PEDAL AT ALL. THE PEDAL WENT IMMEDIATELY DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE HAD FAILED TO SLOW OR STOP. TO AVOID ACCIDENT I VEERED TO THE DIRT SHOULDER AND BEGIN TO SPIN OUT OF CONTROL ENDING UP BACK ON THE ROAD AND CRASHING INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE SEATBELTS HAD FAILED TO LOCK AS IF THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NEVER DEPRESSED AND IT APPEARED THAT AS SOON AS THE TIRES HIT THE DIRT SHOULDER THE VEHICLE GAIN SPEED. IN ADDITION AIRBAGS WERE NEVER DEFLATED.

TAKATA RECALL: 1/26/19 HAD A MVA WHERE FORD FUSION PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME. I TBONED HIM AROUND 20-30MPH, MY AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND SEAT BELTS LOCKED ALL THE WAY OUT. I HIT STEERING WHEEL AND WOUND UP WITH STERNAL FRACTURE WHICH IS NOW A NONUNION FRACTURE. I HAD TAKEN CAR INTO HONDA DEALER TO HAVE RECALL FIXED WHICH THEY SAID THEY DID ( I HAVE RECEIPTS) BUT THEY OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T. HONDA RECALL 16-048

AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND I HAVE RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THIS FACT

I'M REALIZING THAT MY PASSENGER AIR BAGS HAS HAD MULTIPLE RECALLS MADE.

CAR LOST CONTROL ON THE ROAD AND MOVED OUTSIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THE SIDE AIR BAGS GOT DEPLOYED. WHEN THEY GOT DEPLOYED THE AIR BAGS DID NOT INFLATE. THIS HAS CAUSED THE HEAD TO BE HIT ON THE WINDOWS OF THE CAR PRETTY HARD. HOW COULD IT HAPPEN THAT THE AIR BAGS GOD DEPLOYED BUT NO AIR GOT INFLATED INTO THE AIRBAGS. THEY JUST FELL AS IF A CLOTH \ CURTAIN WAS COMING OUT WITHOUT INFLATING. ATTACHED PICTURES SHOULD GIVE YOU AN IDEA.

TAMARA RECALL: MY FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG DOES NOT WORK. THE CAR L HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY 2 DIFFERENT MECHANIC'S

2011 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO REPLACEMENT PARTS NOT AVAILABLE TO REPAIR PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL AND CONSUMER WAS DENIED A LOANER VEHICLE UNTIL REPAIRS ARE COMPLETE. *SMD *JS

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET MY CAR HIT A POTHOLE AND MY AIRBAGS DEPLORED.

TAKATA RECALL ISSUED IN JULY 2016. IN JANUARY 2017 DEALER SAID THEY WERE RECEIVING PARTS FOR LAST SUMMER'S RECALLS. TODAY I WAS TOLD THE DEALER (PROCTOR HONDA, TALLAHASSEE, FL) HAS NO IDEA, THEY ARE STILL WAITING PARTS, PLEASE BE PATIENT. PLEASE HELP, WE NEED MORE REPLACEMENT PARTS. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL. DUE TO POTENTIAL INJURY/DEATH TO PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE, I CANNOT HAVE ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR MY JOB AND INCONVENIENT FOR MY PERSONAL TIME. NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE, DESPITE HONDA SAYING ONE WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN 2016.

TAKATA RECALL - MY RECALL LOOKUP SAYS REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE, BUT THE INITIAL ESTIMATES SAY I SHOULD EXPECT A RECALL IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016. IF A REMEDY IS NOT AVAILABLE IN A TIMELY MANNER, THE LOOKUP SAYS TO FILE A COMPLAINT.

TAKATA INFLATOR. HONDA SENT RECALL NOTICE ONE YEAR AGO BUT OPPORTUNITY TO REPAIR/REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE EVEN THOUGH THEY PROPOSED THAT IT WOULD BE BY 6-9 MONTHS. NO INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED.

TAKATA RECALL - MY COMPLAINT IS WITH THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT IS TAKING FOR PARTS TO BECOME AVAILABLE TO REPAIR A HONDA CIVIC I PURCHASED FOR MY DAUGHTER AND HER FAMILY. I RECEIVED A LETTER IN JULY 2016 INDICATING THAT THE 'REMEDY PARTS NEEDED TO CONDUCT PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALLS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016'. I ALSO WAS ADVISED I WOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE VEHICLE IS REPAIRED I WAS ADVISED: "HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED." AS OF TODAY, DECEMBER 30, 2016, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE 2ND LETTER. IT IS EXTREMELY STRESSFUL FOR A MOTHER TO HAVE HER CHILD SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHEN SHE KNOWS THIS POSES A DANGER. HOWEVER, WHEN THE CAR IS USED FOR A SINGLE MOM WITH THREE CHILDREN, THERE ARE NO OTHER OPTIONS. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD COMPENSATE FAMILIES BY PROVIDING A SAFE RENTAL CAR UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE CAR AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. THANK YOU FOR READING MY CONCERN. *TR

I WAS INFORMED OF AN AIRBAG RECALL IN JULY 2016 AND WAS TOLD PARTS NEEDED WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016. IT HAS BEEN 5 MONTHS AND STILL NO COMMUNICATION FROM MANUFACTURER AND NO REPAIR HAS BEEN MADE.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH FRIDAY, 12/2 AND NEITHER MY AIRBAG OR SEAT BELT DID WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DO. I ACCIDENTALLY REAR-ENDED SOMEONE ON THE HIGHWAY IN MODERATE TRAFFIC GOING APPROXIMATELY 20-25 MPH, AND MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY, AND MY SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK, WHICH LED TO ME HITTING MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL.

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED RECALL LETTER 07/2016 AND THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY AVAILABLE ON 10/29/2016. LETTER CLAIMED THAT REMEDY WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN THE LATE SUMMER OR FALL. LETTER ALSO ADVISED NOT TO HAVE ANYBODY SIT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHICH IS EXTREMELY INCONVENIENT .

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED MY SAFETY RECALL LETTER IN JULY WHICH STATED I PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE LATE SUMMER/FALL. WE PROCEEDED IN NOT ALLOWING SOMEONE IN OUR PASSENGER SIDE OF OUR CAR. WE CALLED ABOUT THE RECALL AND WERE TOLD THE PARTS WERE NOT IN. WE CALLED AGAIN AND WHERE TOLD NOONE HAD PUT OUR NAME DOWN FOR THEM TO ORDER THE PARTS. WE LEFT OUR NAME AND WE WERE TOLD THEY SHOULD BE IN IN A WEEK. WE CALLED BACK AND THE PARTS WERE NOT IN AND WERE TOLD THEY WOULD CALL AS SOON AS THEY GOT THEM. WE ARE NOW AT THE END OF OCTOBER AND AFTER SEVERAL CALLS WE HAVE NOT BEEN CALLED BACK OR RECEIVED ANY MORE INFORMATION. WE HAVE CALLED AGAIN AND SAME ANSWER NO PARTS. WE USE OUR VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT OUR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL. WE HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN OFFERED A FREE CAR RENTAL TO USE UNTIL THEY GET IT FIXED. THIS ISSUE STARTED IN JULY.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS INFORMED BY MY FRIEND TO CHECK THE VIN OF MY CAR FOR A RECALL ON 6/24/16 BECAUSE HE RECEIVED A NOTICED ABOUT A RECALL ON CERTAIN MODELS OF HONDA VEHICLES. I SEARCHED MY VIN ON THE RICK CASE HONDA DAVIE WEBSITE AND FOUND OUT MY CAR WAS AFFECTED AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO GO IN ON 7/2/16 12 PM. WHEN I WENT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR MY APPOINTMENT WITH ARNOLD FERNANDEZ, HE STATED THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND HAD TO ORDER IT BY EACH CAR'S VIN. HE TOLD ME HE ORDERED THE PART AND WHEN IT WAS READY SOMEONE FROM HONDA WOULD CALL ME AND HELP ME MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR ME TO BRING MY CAR IN TO FIX IT. HE TOLD ME IT WOULD PROBABLY TAKE 2 WEEKS. LATE JULY I FINALLY RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA INFORMING ME ABOUT THE RECALL. AT THIS TIME IT HAD BEEN 3 WEEKS SINCE THE PART WAS SUPPOSEDLY ORDERED, I CALLED HONDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE TO SEE IF THE PART WAS IN YET AND THEY SAID IF I DIDN'T RECEIVE A CALL FROM THEM THEN ITS NOT IN YET. I ASKED THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP TO CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE PART WAS ORDERED AND SHE SAID SHE COULD NOT CHECK AND I HAD TO WAIT FOR THE CALL. IT IS NOW 8/31/16, EXACTLY 60 DAYS FROM THE DAY I MADE MY FIRST APPOINTMENT WITH THEM ON 7/2/16. THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING IN A CAR FOR 60 DAYS THAT IS UNSAFE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY.

TAKATA RECALL: I AM TRYING TO DETERMINE WHETHER I NEED TO TAKE MY 2011 HONDA CIVIC SEDAN IN TO CHECK THE AIR BAGS AND POSSIBLY REPLACE THEM. I THOUGHT THE MOST RECENT RECALL NOTICES CITED THE HONDA CIVIC 2011 PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG AS A POTENTIAL PROBLEM. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENTS OR MALFUNCTIONS SO FAR, BUT I AM VERY CONCERNED.

I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AT AN INTERSECTION. A GMC SUV WENT THROUGH THE STOP SIGN, AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, ACROSS FROM ME, T-BONED A SUBARU THAT HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY, AND THEN THE GMC CRASHED INTO MY FRONT END. THE ACCIDENT DESTROYED MY FRONT END AND MOVED MY CAR INTO AN ANGLE. NEITHER MY DRIVERS OR PASSENGERS AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE ACCIDENT MISSED AN AIRBAG SENSOR, BUT I WOULD BE AMAZED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH ON A SLIPPERY ROAD, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASHED INTO A CURB. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. UPDATED 11/18/15*LJ

DASHBOARD INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON FOR AIRBAG SYSTEM. TOOK TO A SHOP AND THEY READ TO CODES TO DETERMINE THAT IT WAS A FAULTY PRESSURE SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. *TR

CAR WAS GOING AROUND A CORNER AND HYDRO PLANED. THE REAR END OF THE CAR SLID TO THE LEFT AND I TURNED INTO THE SPIN HOWEVER LOST CONTROL AND THE CAR ROLLED OVER TWICE LANDING UPSIDE DOWN. NO AIR EMPLOYED FROM THE ROLL OVER. *TR

ON 1/15/13 I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE THE FRONT OF MY 2011 HONDA CIVIC STRUCK THE SIDE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE IMPACT CAUSED ME TO STRIKE THE STEERING WHEEL BECAUSE THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AN MY SEAT BELT WILL NOT ENGAGE. I SUSTAINED INJURIES TO MY UPPER BODY BECAUSE THE AIRBAG DID NOT PROPERLY DEPLOY. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS AT THIS POINT. *TR
